Answer:

The answer is
x=3 and
y=8.

Explanation:

Given:

3y+10x−54=0

5y−2x−34=0

Now, to solve the system of equations:


3y+10x-54=0\\\\3y+10x=54\ \ \ ......(1)


5y-2x-34=0\\\\5y-2x=34\ \ \ \ ........(2)

So, to multiply the equation (2) by 5 we get:


25y-10x=170\ \ \ ...(2)

Now, to solve the equations by adding both the equations (1) and (2):


3y+10x+(25y-10x)=170+54\\\\3y+10x+25y-10x=224\\\\28y=224

Then, dividing both sides by 28 we get:


y=8.

Now, substituting the value of
y in equation (1):


3y+10x=54\\\\3(8)+10x=54\\\\3* 8+10x=54\\\\24+10x=54

Subtracting both sides by 24 we get:


10x=30

Dividing both sides by 10 we get:


x=3.

Therefore, the answer is
x=3 and
y=8.
